advertising and trying to get referrals. I have tried and I can't even ask someone to join under me. I feel bad and take it so personally if they don't, I guess, I really don't know what it is. But, I have tried to advertise my blog and I am no good at that either. What is your secret to how you do it and how to go about getting your blog out there and getting referrals? Remember... I am not the type to be bold and just out and out ask someone to join. I need baby steps to get into this I guess is what I need. I really don't know what I need to get started. I know referrals are the secret to any and all programs online. I have had to try to do my online work without many referrals because I can't get out there and advertise the right way. Thanks for all your help.

Hang in there! Learn your programs inside and out, build the confidence and knowledge that it is one of the best programs out there, that will make it much easier for you to "ask" for referrals. If people are interested in the program and you can guide them, they will be appreciative, no need to be nervous about it. There are different ways to promote your blog. traffic exchanges, blogger sites (my personal fav), forums that allow signatures, blog link exchanges with people.
If we you want can link our blogs. I have a PR3 so although its' not the most visible out there, it's doing pretty good.

It is awful how hard it is for me to do. I am glad I have met someone else that has the same problems. Maybe someone will respond to this discussion and help us both. Thanks for posting.

I always found referrals are easier to find when you are either asking them to join a program that really makes sense for them to join... a program that FREE, and one that can help them make money by doing something they would like to do.
Of course if you can show them proof of earnings, they might believe they can do it too. But this will only work when you have decent earnings. There are many free ways of promoting sites and looking for referrals, amny of them are free, but they really are hit & miss. Keep grinding it out and you will attract referrals!
Congrats on reaching 1,000 posts!

Well at least you had try :P there is nothing useless. Just keep on blogging. Be tough, do not surrender. Just remember that you have a lot of friends that have the same problem as your are ( for example me :P)
